The Academy Award nominations were announced this morning, and everybody’s buzzing about the films that were nominated ― Lincoln leading the pack with 12 nods, Silver Linings Playbook dominating all four acting categories, and the oldest and youngest Best Actress nominees ever from Amour and Beasts of the Southern Wild.
